    Asking this question for a female colleague who isn’t on boards..
    So she does a lot of runs and two or three marathons a year but it’s nearly always the case the tops that are offered are men’s fit for instance she received her limerick pack today and the extra small top is huge on her and it’s obviously a mans extra small and same goes for any vests she has gotten in the past and are unwearable for the most part...she is finding it unfair as she pays same price as everyone else ... so she is right to be pissed off and would it be a huge effort to order a men’s fit and women’s fit for run...
    She knows it’s not a major issue in the grand scheme of things..

    Most big city marathons offer a mens and womens fit t-shirt but these are from big running companies like Nike, Saucony, NB etc. Your bog standard roas race won't go to that length because of cost i would say.

    I wish runs would look to something else other that tops for every race or run.
    Most of the time they ae cheap as chips, badly fitting and fit for the attic the day after.
    Dublin gave a nice head lamp a few years back (as well as a good quailty top)
    Hat's, Sun visors compression sleeves? a mug?

    Mabye its just me but the odd top would suffice but not for every 10K half or full...

    Not sure about the belly top 😮 but I do love the snails...more quirky bits like these are way better than a badly fitting tshirt .
